I am evaluating the JMeter to be used for Load testing of our JSF application.
I followed the below link to find the way to pass JSF View State Id from one requests to other and it worked.
http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/PerformanceTestingWithJMeter
I can see the JSF View State Id getting passed ,but the issue is the String got modified as below and causing view expired exception.
Actual JSF View State returned from GET :5843186584364912760:4842974224399060609
The subsequent POST request send this :5843186584364912760%3A4842974224399060609
The “:” character in middle is replaced with %3A (hexa value), is there any way to bypass this and pass the exact string from one request to other.
Flag this parameter so that it won’t be encoded.
It’s a checkbox in post parameters called ‘Encode?’
